Agree 100%therealkennyboy wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2023 2:36 pmRather than bend the tabs, just relieve (cut back) the plug wire insulation a bit more and bring the wire core down to the appropriate gap, i.e. make the wires stick out a bit farther so they are closer to the tabs. Don't mess with the tabs.
I’ve “heard” of people breaking the tabs off.. I always adjust the spark plug wires to get my gap.
